I wrote to ask an honest question since I do like to *collect* some vintage gear from time to time.

The seller, *nvbn* on the eBay address responded in an extremely derogatory way about Canadians (I am Canadian living in the USA) and I felt I should draw your attention to it since I would not wish someone to make a purchase from a racist bigot. I asked about a YouTube or video view and his response was nasty. In fact I have ordered a 112 module Modcan as a part of my studio (and when Bruce completes this it will be demoed on video and more updates here) - however, I was genuinely interested in the Buchla but never expected such venom for simple request.

Please, join me and file a complaint against nvbn, to eBay on bigotry. I do not think it is appropriate conduct to by racist, derogatory or nasty to an entire culture (and all I did was ask a simple question). If he had sent me his reply in private I would have thought nothing further of it, but, because he chose to speak out in public, I cannot stay silent.

Please help - as a community, we can make a difference to eBay and have his listing and comments removed.

I'd love to help, but my experience with e-bay is that we can't make a difference. E-bay are a shady setup to say the very least. They protect con-artists and pirates by hiding their feedback. I have personal experience with this and treat any dealings on e-bay with extreme caution. I have no trust in the way e-bay is run anymore. If I were you, I would simply bite my tongue and turn away.
